Species Distribution Modeling

The codes for modeling species distribution have been placed in this repository. Two folders have been created - one containing the 6 scripts and another the associated data. The premise for each analysis has been explained at the beginning of each script. The repository now contains the R codes for following analysis:

1. Downloading bioclimatic variables, processing occurrence and climate data, selection of variables (sdm1)
2. Niche characterization (sdm2)
3. Testing of model transferability (sdm3)
4. Modelling distribution of an invasive species (sdm4)
5. Modelling distribution of a true mangrove species (sdm5)
6. Downloading occurrence data for a large number of species from GBIF (sdm6)

*Note: The data files for sdm3 and sdm6 are available within the 'Data' folder of this repository. The data files for sdm1 (and sdm4), sdm2 and sdm5 can be downloaded from the following links:
